Torque is an awesome app that allows you to measure your torque (unsurprisingly) and BHP.

It uses a OBD II Bluetooth adapter to connect to your OBD2 engine management. Whenconnected, you can view and reset DTC / fault codes just like a scan tool.

There is a huge fault code database so you can easily look up what any codes mean. It can also provide 0-60 times along with Dyno and Horsepower info.

Car Locator

We have all had moments when you just cannot find your car. If you have been on holiday and parked your car then how are you expected to remember where it is after two weeks in the sun?

Let me introduce...Car locator. There are quite a lot of car locator apps but this is probably the best. It has multiple views, including a cool radar mode. You can send your cars location to another phone - great in case your battery dies before you get back!
